Debussy’s Romantic Piano by Candlelight – ‘Clair de Lune’
Following his ★★★★★ sold-out Edinburgh Fringe show, concert pianist Matthew Shiel tours Brighton with a show inspired by the most romantic piano pieces ever composed and the mysterious masked balls of Venice.

Tonight’s musical programme includes Liszt’s Liebestraum, Chopin’s Raindrop Prelude and Debussy’s 'Clair de Lune' – performed by intimate candlelight as he exposes the secret love affairs of the great composer’s hearts that have shaped the history of classical music.

This concert will also feature a new romantic piece composed specially for tonight's artist by Matthew's Italian friend and composer Dr Alfredo Caponnetto – 'Notturno VI' alongside a digital art exhibition designed by acclaimed Shanghai artist and Disney illustrator Emma Yitong Shen – to create an immersive musical experience designed to fill you with romantic inspiration and open your heart to live and to love!
